Leading investment bank Standard Chartered recently published a five-year Bitcoin forecast. The global bank remains bullish on BTC’s prospects and predicts its price could sustainably scale up in the indices. Analysts wrote that accumulating Bitcoin at its current price of $100,000 is as good as buying the dips. Institutional funds are accumulating BTC in droves despite the digital asset hovering around its all-time high.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the Bitcoin ETF in March last year. The move allowed trillion-dollar investment funds like BlackRock, Fidelity, VenEck, and Grayscale, among others to invest in the cryptocurrency. The influx of new investments pushed BTC to climb above the $100,000 mark in 2024. Taking all things into consideration, Standard Chartered has now forecasted a five-year target for Bitcoin.

Below is the five-year price prediction for Bitcoin from Standard Chartered analysts:

2025 – $200,000
2026 – $300,000
2027 – $400,000
2028 – $500,000
2029 – $500,000

“We continue to target BTC to reach the $200,000 level by year-end 2025. Thereafter, we see BTC reaching levels around $300,000 by end-2026, $400,000 by end-2027, and $500,000 by end-2028, remaining there until end-2029,” read the 5-year Bitcoin prediction from Standard Chartered.

According to Standard Chartered, Bitcoin could reach $500,000 in 2028 and maintain the same stance in 2029. That’s a jump of 400% from its current price of $100,000. Therefore, even owning 1 Bitcoin could deliver massive returns if the forecast turns out to be accurate.
